I find this very interesting. There are similar low numbers getting married in Massachusetts. If they push so hard for the right to get married, why do so few homosexuals actually go ahead and get married?

Technically, 100% of gays can marry. It is who they marry that has restrictions, just like for strait people.

The word “gays” should have also been in quotation marks.

If people do not wish for any sort of gay sex to happen, the fastest way to assure that is to legalize and institutionalize same-sex marriage.

If it works for heterosexuals, it should work for homosexuals.

Well, here's a little secret - it never was so much a gay issues as a gay activist issue. Most of the gay people I know (and I do know a few) aren't particularly interested in actually marrying anyone, even the ones who say they want the "right" to. The issue is being pushed by a fairly small number of gay activists and a fairly large number of social activists who aren't gay.

The latter don't actually care about gay people any more than they do any people who don't live according to their progressive precepts. That can be a real problem for gay people who really would prefer just to be left alone. They aren't being left alone. It isn't conservatives who are prodding them, outing them, blackmailing and threatening them if they don't toe the line.

The good news in this is that a change in policy isn't really going to result in mass gay marriages (and ensuing mass gay divorces). The bad news is that this is far from the end of it.

Homosexuality is about SEX, not love or commitment.

Nothing but perverts, IMO!
